Blinds and Shades to Match Your Nashville Home's Style

When you imagine your home’s style, you likely think of your color scheme, furniture, wall art, and fixtures. But do you think about your window treatment? Whether you realize it or not, the blinds and shades you choose for your windows from room to room contribute a lot to your aesthetic and design! (No really, go take a quick look.)

Interior designers nationwide and in Nashville consider blinds and shades important elements of your home’s appeal, not only for how they affect the rooms’ lighting but also for their textures, colors, and patterns.

So, do your window treatments match your style?

Here are Dynamic Delivery Blinds’ recommendations, according to your home’s style:

  1. Wood Blinds or Plantation Shutters for Farmhouse
  2. Solar Shades or Roman Shades for Contemporary
  3. Verticals or Cellular Shades for Bohemian
  4. Silhouette Shades or Plantation Shutters for Traditional
  5. Roller Shades or Wood Blinds for Glamorous
  6. Roman Shades or Silhouette Shades for Eclectic
  7. Cellular Shades or Roller Shades for Transitional
  8. Your Style Is Your Own

Farmhouse: Wood Blinds or Plantation Shutters

Farmhouse style, these days, can vary from a salvaged and rustic feel with reclaimed wood to a more chic, French influence featuring contemporary pieces and floral patterns.

With that in mind, you can’t go wrong with classic wood blinds, whether natural, stained, or painted! Plantation shutters are also lovely with their minimalistic yet effortless style.

Contemporary: Solar Shades or Roman Shades

The contemporary home is often monochromatic (white, gray) with neutral colors, clean, and minimalistic.

Solar shades capture the spirit of this popular modern living style. Solar shades allow for plenty of natural light, working with a contemporary home’s naturally open feel, and can be neutral or color-customized. Roman shades, on the other hand, offer a soft texture and slightly more personal approach to the home.

Bohemian: Vertical or Cellular Shades

The Bohemian home style is laid back, mixing unique patterns and colors, and of course is unmistakable with its inclusion of greenery, table beads, and crochet wall art. Think of a bungalow!

 

For this home style, we recommend vertical panel shades for their wide blinds and drapery look or cellular shades for their honeycomb structure and thoughtful palette.

Traditional: Silhouette Shades or Plantation Shutters

The traditional style is comfortable and livable but has an appreciation for classic elements like antiques, flush fabrics, and deep colors.

Silhouette shades and plantation shutters are staples for the traditional home as they have been around for years and have yet to go out of style. In fact, plantation shutters trace their origins all the way back to ancient Greece!

Glamorous: Roller Shades or Wood Blinds

A glamorous home style is just like it sounds: fashionable, with an eye for the luxurious. Ranging from colorful to monochromatic and plush accents to long and tall features, you need blinds and shades that complete the look.

The versatility of roller shades to be bold or neutral, then, perfectly complements the glamorous home. Wood blinds’ quality, customizability, and elegance also make an excellent choice.

Eclectic: Roman Shades or Silhouette Shades

Unique and hard to define, an eclectic home style is often a collage of art, furniture, and colors.

While there may be many blind or shade options that could work with your eclectic feel, we at Dynamic Delivery Blinds recommend Roman shades for their inherently unique nature or silhouette shades with a design or color of your choice for a slightly traditional twist.

Transitional: Cellular Shades or Roller Shades

Mixing the contemporary and traditional styles, transitional homes have no clearly defined rules but tastefully blend together splashes of color, eye-catching pieces, and more timeless home features.

Depending on your home’s personality, we’d like to recommend two completely different shade styles. If your home has large windows, cellular shades meld on-trend fabrics with varying opacity levels to allow for plenty of light or black it out altogether. Roller shades offer more customization but with the same blackout/light features that will keep your valuable furniture, rugs, and artwork safe from UV rays.
